    „We're finally here" Molly exclaimed.
  „ Let's find Isaac Wilson" i say as i step into the hospital.

The crowded waiting room is a sea of weary faces, each telling a story of pain and uncertainty. The air is heavy with the scent of pills and antiseptic, mingling with the sound of coughs and hushed conversations.

We weave our way through the crowded room, dodging the tired faces and the noise of chatter until we reach the front desk.

A woman sits there looking around and answering calls, her face showing signs of tiredness as if she hasn't slept in a while:
  - Hi, I'm Cassie Whitlock, i say forcing smile.
- Hello, are you looking for someone? she replies playing with a pencil that's tucked in her messy bun.
  - Actually yes, we're looking for doctor Isaac Wilson?

The woman looks at me with a cold stare chewing gum, and takes the corded phone and dials a number:  „Doctor Wilson, a woman named Cassie Whitlock wants to see you"...
- Tell him that Aidan David sent us, Molly says.
My anxiety was over the roof as i see her nodding her head yes at the phone call.
"Doctor Wilson can see you now" please follow me, she says and stands up.

We enter an office closing the door behind us looking at the view from the big windows:
- So Aidans sent you both? a calm voice breaks the silence.
I cross my hands and say:
- Yes...
- Take a sit, please.

His desk was cluttered with papers and pencils, as we settle into the chairs in front of his desk i glance at Molly and ask:
- Do you know Anna Carter?
Isaac looks at me with terror in his eyes and stands up:
  - It's happening...
Molly looks at me as she stands up and says:
  - I'm her daughter.
  - This can't be...Isaac murmurs reaching out to touch Molly's face.
She takes a step back and her face turns red:
  - What's happening to my mum? Molly asks.
Isaac moves around in circles with his hands behind his back scanning the both of us:
  - Molly...he says, please understand that Anna is a very dangerous woman...
  - I don't understand! Molly exclaims.
  - She's mentally unstable and schizophrenic, years ago before you were born, Isaac says and sits back down, she came here asking me for help, but i refused and sent her to mental institution because she insisted that her unborn daughter has to die..but here you are, alive...

Molly looks at me with tears in her eyes „Jenna" she whispers...

Isaac wipes his forehead with a tissue and rushes to get to the phone: „Hello, Aidan, go check on Anna, she's home alone!"
  - Girls we need to hurry back to Crystal Bay, Anna might be up to something! Isaac says grabbing his coat.

We rush through the hospital hallways leaving every door open in our way out.
- Doctor, you said that it's happening...what exactly is going on? Molly asks.
- Her plan that she told me about, i'll explain everything when we arrive, Issac says catching his breath.

I open the hospital front door in a hurry letting Molly pass first. As we approach Isaac's car the rain starts and makes it hard for him to find his key „come on now, where is it?" He says.

Molly grabs me by the hand as the rain soaks our clothes to the skin but i can see that she's crying „everything will be okay" i say trying to comfort her.

"It's time to face Anna, and find answers to my questions", i said to myself while opening the car door for Molly to enter.
